For a good job, I need to get certified, so as to look like a more credible candidate. I need a good comparison for cisa vs. cissp, the two different but similar kinds of certificates available in the market. Which one is better?
The major difference between a cisa and a cissp is that a cissp’s job mostly requires to focus on handling security issues, while a cisa mostly does auditing.
Further, the cissp is awarded by the ISC and is relevant for ICT workers looking to make a career in the information security sector. Thus, it is more relevant to the IT industry.
CISA, on the other hand, is a much less technical exam, and is more or less for auditing based careers. But, CISA certification almost always guarantees a higher salary.
